Pat Mayo breaks down the exact 2026 One & Done strategy you need to compete in large-field contests like the Race for the Mayo Cup, including:
 

• Why signature events matter more than wins
• How to allocate elite players properly
• Ownership leverage vs playing chalk
• Why long shots destroy One & Done seasons
• How to pace your stars across 31 tournaments
• When to take risks — and when NOT to
• The biggest mistake players make early in the year
• How winners actually close the season
   

This isn’t about “who’s good at golf.”
It’s about payout structures, timing, leverage, and resource management.
